3. the flow of electrical power or charge
4. the SI unit of electromotive force, the difference of potential that would drive one ampere of current against one ohm resistance.
7. a substance that heat or electricity can pass through or along
8. the rate at which electrons flow past a point in a complete electrical circuit
10. The ampere is a measure of the amount of electric charge in motion per unit time
13. one in which all circuit elements are arranged in a single path.
15. container consisting of one or more cells, in which chemical energy is converted into electricity and used as a source of power
16. Diagram, a visual representation of a simple circuit and its main components
18. Materials that do not allow electricity to pass through them
20. the voltage across a conductor is directly proportional to the current flowing through it, provided all physical conditions and temperature, remain constant

1. one that has two or more paths for the electricity to flow, the loads are parallel to each other.
2. the refusal to accept or comply with something; the attempt to prevent something by action or argument.
5. device for making and breaking the connection in an electric circuit.
6. an electromotive force or potential difference expressed in volts.
9. a measure of the resisting power of a specified material to the flow of an electric current.
11. the smallest unit that can live on its own and that makes up all living organisms and the tissues of the body
12. a roughly circular line, route, or movement that starts and finishes at the same place
14. ability to move heat or electricity from one place to another
17. an electrical safety device having a metal wire or strip that melts and interrupts the circuit when the current becomes too strong
19. resistance of an object when a current of 1 Ampere flows through an object having a voltage(potential difference) of 1 Volt.
